“Junk science” is usually, as in this case, a meaningless pejorative applied to any scientific fact the corporate looters and polluters or others on the far right don’t want to hear.

By the way, activist Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine, has a new book on climate coming out in September, titled This Changes Everything.
